From March 5-13, more than 250,000 people will have a glimpse into the stunning views of the Pacific Crest Trail at the Philadelphia Flower Show.
Each year, the University of Delaware builds an exhibit for the annual Philadelphia Flower Show at the Pennsylvania Convention Center. It is the world’s oldest and largest indoor flower show. The show features large-scale gardens, elaborate landscapes and over-the-top floral creations.
This year, the theme of the show is “Explore America,” celebrating 100 years of National Parks. The University of Delaware’s exhibit entitled “Take to the Trail” will highlight amazing journeys on the PCT, taking virtual hikers through scenery representing many of the beautiful landscapes the trail has to offer.
If you’re on the east coast, come see us at the show! We’ll post photos of the exhibit throughout the week of the show, but for now, check out a sneak peek.
The PCT at a flower show? Oh the distance the trail goes! Learn more about the flower show on the National Park Service website.
